Co-curricular
Our varied co-curricular program provides many advanced opportunities for students develop a variety of skills and help them find their passion. From sports to performing arts, from debating to music and across a range of academic extension programs, each student is challenged to become an active part of the school community.
Our Horizons Program aims to identify students with high intellectual potential, and to enhance their learning experience by offering them a range of extension and enrichment activities that extend beyond the classroom. These include things like quizzes, tournaments and games of strategy that are designed to challenge the way they think.

From Tinternwood Farm to Clunes Showgrounds, our Young Farmers have put their skills to the test in a fantastic hands-on agricultural experience.
Six Merino wethers arrived at Tinternwood Farm earlier this year, with selected Year 8 and 9 students working alongside our Year 11 Farm Captains, Sophie and Caitlin, to develop a broad range of skills across sheep and wool production. After months of dedication and hard work, students travelled to Clunes Showgrounds to take part in a friendly competition between 28 teams from 14 Victorian schools.
Despite the rain and mud, our students enthusiastically took part in activities to estimate the value of the sheep, assess the wool, show the sheep and perform wool handling duties for the shearers.
One of our teams placed an impressive 7th overall, competing against teams largely made up of Year 10–12 students from rural schools. A fantastic achievement and a wonderful demonstration of the knowledge developed by these Young Farmers.
Congratulations to our Senior Wind Symphony and Concert Band on both receiving Gold Awards at the Victorian Schools Music Festival!
Our Senior Wind Symphony impressed the judges with their outstanding technical ability, fabulous tone and wonderful solos, while the Concert Band was praised for a performance filled with great spirit and energy.
A fantastic achievement for both ensembles and a wonderful reflection of the talent and hard work of our young musicians. Congratulations to all involved!
Congratulations to ballet dancer and Tintern Grammar Year 9 student Nina, who was recently awarded the coveted Frances Naylor Excellence Award at the prestigious annual Ballet Teachers Workshop.
More than 500 entrants from over 50 ballet schools nationwide took part in the competition, with only the top tier of dancers selected. Nina’s first-place achievement in her age group is a testament to her perseverance and commitment to her sport.
Tintern Grammar is incredibly proud of Nina's remarkable achievement.
Tintern Grammar’s Middle School Musical, Annie JR., was a phenomenal creative collaboration on stage and off. More than 75 performers were supported behind the scenes by a crew of students helping with choreography and audio visual, alongside incredible Performing Arts staff, with teamwork at the heart of the production.
Across four memorable shows, the cast shone, showcasing the depth of talent across the Middle School and delivering plenty of toe-tapping favourites along the way.
Beyond the joy of bringing a beloved musical to life, Annie JR. has created cherished memories and new friendships for everyone involved.
Science Week was a wonderful celebration of discovery across Tintern Grammar Junior School. Throughout the week, scientists of all ages explored and shared ideas alongside one another.
It was a wonderful reflection of how real scientists learn – questioning, exploring, collaborating and building on the ideas of others. In the spirit of this year’s 'Seeds of Science' theme, we saw that curiosity can start small, but when students are given opportunities to wonder, investigate and learn together, those little seeds of scientific thinking can grow into something much bigger.
